Placental growth factor at 24-28 weeks for aspirin discontinuation in pregnancies at high risk for preterm preeclampsia: Post hoc analysis of StopPRE trial.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThis study aims to evaluate the safety of discontinuing aspirin treatment at 24-28 weeks in women at high risk after first-trimester combined screening for preeclampsia (PE) and normal placental growth factor (PlGF) levels at 24-28 weeks of gestation. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis is a post hoc analysis of the StopPRE trial, conducted at nine Spanish maternity hospitals from September 2019 to September 2021. In the StopPRE trial, all high-risk single pregnancies identified during first-trimester screening for PE were treated with 150 mg of daily aspirin. Out of 1604 eligible women with a soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 to PlGF ratio (sFlt-1/PlGF) ≤38 at 24-28 weeks, 968 were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either continue aspirin until 36 weeks (control group) or discontinue it (intervention group). In this secondary analysis, only women with PlGF ≥100 pg/mL at 24-28 weeks were included. As in the StopPRE trial, the non-inferiority margin was set at a 1.9% difference in preterm PE incidence between the groups.
resultsAmong the 13 983 screened pregnant women, 1984 (14.2%) were deemed high-risk for preterm PE, of which 397 (20.0%) were ineligible, 636 declined participation, and 32 were excluded. Ultimately, 919 women with PlGF >100 pg/mL were randomized and included in this analysis. Preterm PE occurred in 0.9% of the intervention group (4 out of 465) and 1.5% of the control group (7 out of 454), indicating non-inferiority of aspirin discontinuation. There were no significant differences between the groups in adverse pregnancy outcomes before 37 weeks, at <34 weeks, or ≥37 weeks. Minor antepartum hemorrhage incidence was significantly lower in the intervention group (absolute difference, -5.96; 95% CI, -10.10 to -1.82).
conclusionsDiscontinuation of aspirin treatment at 24-28 weeks in women with PlGF levels ≥100 pg/mL was non-inferior to continuing until 36 weeks for preventing preterm PE. However, these findings should be interpreted with caution, as they originate from a subanalysis of the StopPRE trial.
